3.80 Carat Natural Loose Tri Color Tourmaline Baguette Shape Ring Gemstone
Located in Peshawar, PK
Loose Tourmaline Weight: 3.80 Carats Dimension: 9.9x7.9x5 Mm Origin: Africa Shape: Baguette Color: Tri ( White, Blue & Black) Treatment: Non Tri-color tourmaline is a captivating variety of the mineral tourmaline known for its striking and distinct coloration, showcasing three distinct color zones within a single crystal. These zones often consist of pink, green, and white or clear sections, creating a mesmerizing visual effect that sets tri-color tourmaline apart from other gemstones. The formation of these tri-color zones in tourmaline is a result of the gem's crystal growth process, which can be influenced by changes in chemical composition during its formation. This unique characteristic makes each tri-color tourmaline gem a one-of-a-kind creation, with patterns that can range from a subtle interplay of colors to bold and dramatic transitions. Tri-color tourmaline is commonly found in countries like Brazil and Mozambique, where tourmaline deposits are abundant. Brazilian tourmalines, in particular, are renowned for their exceptional color and quality. Miners and lapidaries carefully cut and shape these gems to maximize the visual impact of the tri-color effect, creating stunning pieces of jewelry that highlight the gem's uniqueness. The tri-color tourmaline's fascinating combination of hues makes it an attractive choice for jewelry designers and collectors. These gemstones can be cut into various shapes, from classic facets...

Loose Gemstones for Sale on 1stDibs

Are you shopping for diamonds and other loose gemstones to create your own custom jewelry? 

Why might you purchase a diamond or gemstone “loose” — that is, on its own, not mounted in a piece of jewelry? Perhaps you’re a connoisseur looking to acquire a unique investment. The scarcity of high-quality colored diamonds, for instance, especially pink diamonds, means that their value increases over time; the same is true of rare Kashmir sapphires and Burmese rubies. Far rarer than diamonds, Paraiba tourmaline, discovered only in the 1980s, is treasured as much for its extraordinary color as its scarcity, both of which contribute to its high value.

A more common scenario would be that you’re hoping to create a very special piece of custom jewelry, such as an engagement ring or a milestone-birthday present, and want to personally select the most beautiful, unusual, or ultra-rare stone you can find and afford. Doing so adds to the romance and substance of the gift and can be a part of the story told as the jewel is passed from generation to generation.

If this sounds like you, read on for tips on becoming one of the world’s savviest gem hunters.

Educate yourself: When buying any piece of gem-set fine jewelry, you should familiarize yourself with the factors that determine a stone’s price. This will enable you to streamline your search for the perfect gem and have intelligent, productive conversations with sellers.

There is a wealth of information online, such as our diamond-buying guide and this overview of colored gemstones for engagement rings. The buying guides of the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), searchable by stone type, are also a widely trusted source for consumers venturing into the world of diamonds and gems for the first time.

Vet your vendor: If you peruse 1stDibs with any regularity, you know there is no shortage of vendors who deal in top-quality loose gemstones. (Read about our vetted sellers.) Finding a trustworthy, established dealer may be as easy as getting a recommendation from friends or family. And, although it may sound obvious, it pays to Google your candidates — and consult customer reviews — before making contact.

Harakh Mehta, designer and founder of the Mumbai, India–based fine-jewelry brand Harakh, has an innate understanding of proper client relations, especially when the customer is in unfamiliar territory. “Start chatting with the dealer, get to know them better," he says. "It’s very important to establish a comfort level. We never push a sale, as we want it to be a carefully considered purchase. So, if the client is not in a rush, we do it over a few virtual meetings or phone calls.”

Request documentation: The best dealers go to great lengths to furnish clients with documents verifying the quality rating, natural origin and provenance of a stone — showing, for example, that loose emerald hails from the famous Muzo mine in Colombia — and disclosing any treatments applied to enhance its appearance. (And who doesn't love emerald jewelry? The most valuable emeralds are the ones that have a deep bluish-green to true green color and no visible inclusions.)

If no grading report is available for a stone you are interested in, the dealer should be able to provide an authenticity document, such as an appraisal or info sheet, that has been signed by an in-house gemologist or professional appraiser. Google those names, too, for extra peace of mind.

Ask for videos and visuals: When transacting with a gem dealer online, you should always request real-time videos and photographs, since professional photos of a stone, usually on a white background, have likely been retouched for optimal presentation.

Read more about how to buy loose gemstones and find your dream gems today on 1stDibs.
